The MAS series of hard drives combine numerous, innovative Fujitsu technologies to deliver industry-leading performance and reliability. Our seventh-generation Giant Magneto-Resistive (GMR) head technology increases areal density, so MAS drives can achieve capacities up to 73.5 GB using fewer platters. A super-fast 15,000-RPM rotational speed lowers average seek time to 3.3 ms, single-track seek time to 0.3 ms, and average rotational latency to 2.0 ms. To improve response time in high-load, multitasking applications, the MAS series features an 8-MB, 32-bit-wide data cache and a dual-processor architecture. Acceleration Feed Forward, a method of canceling out rotational vibrations and shocks, also helps improve drive performance. And to make MAS drives quieter, we’ve incorporated fluid dynamic bearings (FDBs).
